Fig. 5. KLF2 inhibits neuronal hypoxic-ischemic injury by activating the IRF4/HDAC7 axis in OGD-treated neurons.

Fig. 5

A mRNA expression of KLF2, IRF4, HDAC7, caspase-3, Bax, and Bcl-2; (B). protein expression of KLF2, IRF4, HDAC7, caspase-3, Bax, and Bcl-2; (C) Neuron survival after OGD treatment for 0, 24, 48, and 72 h determined by MTT assay in OGD-treated neurons; (D) Neuron apoptosis determined by flow cytometry 48 h after OGD; (E) Average neurite length and average number of primary neurites determined by immunofluorescence; *p < 0.05 vs. oe-NC + sh-NC; #p < 0.05 vs. oe-KLF2 + sh-NC. Data are expressed as mean ± standard deviation. Data from two groups were compared by independent sample t test. Data from multiple groups were compared by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc test. Data comparison between groups at different time points was performed by repeated measure ANOVA followed by Tukey’s post hoc test.
